Title:
  live migration with vpmem will go to error in Train

Status in OpenStack Compute (nova):
  Fix Released
Status in OpenStack Compute (nova) train series:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  We introduced vpmem support in Train release, including
  create/resize/cold migration, but not live migration(with
  libvirt/qemu).

  Since live migration will essentially rely on an libvirt xml, for vpmem there will be backend files configued in xml, if we live migrate an instance with vpmem under Train release, we may got two
  unexpected results:

  1. If the dest host has the same vpmem backend files as that used by instance on source host,
  the live migration will succeed but the vpmems consumed on dest host will not be tracked.

  2. If the dest host doesn't have those vpmems, the live migration will
  fail.

  We need reject the live migration with vpmem in nova conductor when do
  the precheck. And backport to T release.
